jfariu, &uitu& sUujJt!wß WHAT M)BT OF ASIMAI, IS THE MOST PROFITABLE FOR TH PSUDOCKU AND CONSUMER. Thiß is, undoubtedly, that animal which has the least ofTaland fat, and yields the lar gest amount of the best pieces of meat for the table, in proportion to the weight of its carcass. Suppose the value of the dressed animal ITi cents per pound—the present average price of good beef—the tender loin alone might then be worth 70 cents per pound ; the Porter house steak 40 cents : the fore-rib roa3ting-piece, 35 cents : sirloin steak 30 cents : and the Rump (for cornered beef), 25 cents. Of the other parts we need not speak, the above mentioned being sufficient to illustrate our part. The West Highland cattle of Scotland j were formerly superior to all other breeds in crops, from which part of the carcass the Porter House steak and the Tender loins are cut ; and, possessing in addition to this, a general evenness of form, made up of lean , tender, juicy meat, they command from a penny to twopence (two to four cents) more per pound in the London market than most other breeds. The Devon comes nearest to I hem in a good carcass, next the Hereford and short-horn, then other breeds. Latterly, considerable attention has been paid by breeders of these last three famous species of cattle, to make them equal the in West Highlanders the crops and fore ribs and great improvement has consequently been made in these desirable points : but with all their care, it will be a long time be foie Herfords and Short horns generally equal them'here. Devons being originally better in the crops ; the best breed are no w nearly equal to the Highlanders in this point. It is because the South Down sheep so eminently excels all others intbesanie points, in which the . Highland cattle are superior, that its carcass commands a higher price than any other. We do Dot take the little Welsh mountain sheep into consideration, because it is a fancy animal, whose superior mutton is made from the peculiar rich line-scented grass it feeds on, affecting the taste of the meat in something the same way, as does their autumnal food the flesh of our celebra ted Canvas Back Ducks. It is a mistaken notion on the part of some to suppose that when we have lessened the offal of our domestic animals, and added a large proportion of fat, that we have done all that is necessary to perfect the carcass for the table. Great attention, as we have shown above, must be paid to increasing the propor tion of the choicest parts of the animal. Sup pose the whole carcass was equal to tenderloin; then it would be worth fonr times its present value in the market, or if eqnal to the fore r ib, then double the present value. Fat is a deßr product, and the less we have of it in the carcass, and the more we get of lean, tender, juicy meat, the better and more prof itable it will be for the producer, and consu mer. Fat is unhealthy food, particularly in warm weather, even in form of pork. The reason why the English and American peo ple, who know their vulue, so much prefer Berkshire breed of swine to all others for amily pork, is that they give a much greater proportion of lean meat to the carcass, espe cially in the hams and shoulders. Saving Seed Corn —Fall Flonghing. Mr. J. Weldon, of Winnbeago Co., 111. communicates through the American Agri' mlturist the following advice for his western brethren, which it will not hurt our eastern readers to consider: "In several of even Northern counties, the seed corn last spring proved unusually defective: and it is my ex perience that little reliance can be put at any time in seed selected from the cribs, in this country. Allow me therefore to give your western subscribers a sure method of saving seed corn, so that every grain will grow.— As early as all the kernelsare partially glazed make choice of those ears which have the most rows—not less than 16—(usually the more rows, the less is the proportion of cob), entirely filled out at the small ends not shriveled up at all at the tips. If two such ears are on the same stalk, all the better. Leave en enough husks to tie four ears to gether, to hang them over poles, in some dry place—the upper part of a room, where a fire is kept. I have found a large smoke-house well adapted to such a purpose. The corn should be completely dried, cob and all, be fore any frost can reach it. Thus secured, cured and kept dry, it will readily germinate after many years. It is very desirable to to have as much of the ground plowed in the fall for the next year's corn crop, as can be done well. This is the surest method to de stroy the weeds, and to get the ground iu the best condition to plant at the right time. It is very desirable to have the ground plowed while it is yet warm enough to cause foul seed to sprout and grow: so that the weeds may be cut down by frosts before they yield ripe seed hence early fall plowing is best for corn at the West. Land having a clayey subsoil, really ought not to be plowed less than ten inches deep, for should the ensuing July and August not have abundant showers the plants might suffer; but with such showers, a few inches less may do very well. I believe that one efficient hand, with a first rate team, and furnished with the right implements, can very successfully enltivate 70 or even 80 acres of corn ifplowed early in autumn, and that he may have all tho necessary cultivation finished by the middle of July—and so well that the crop will be out of the reach of a killing frost by the middle of September, and yield full ticiee the average of the six Northern counties of this State. If the land has been managed so slovenly that a very great quantity of foul seed is mixed with the soil, it may take two or even three years to eradicate the weeds, so that one had with one team conld perform all the labor. He might need assistance in thin ning out the plants in June." Oyster Shells or Oyster Shell Lime. Morris Moses asks, in which condition oyster shells are most valuable as a fertilizer, burnt or ground.—ln the fi.st place they are more cheaply reduced to a fine powder by burning than by grinding; 2d the powder of the slaked lime is infiaitely finer than the ground; Bd, the lime is a very active substance producing immediate and marked results, for good usually, for evil, if improperly applied; 4th, the grouud shell is an inert substance, decomposing very gradually and producing no evil effects, and good ones only in case the ground lacks calcareous matter, except so far as 1 to 1J per ecnt of animal matter and a trace of phosphoric acid will go. Many soils need calcareous matter, and 5 pounds of slakotj oyster shell lime will go much farther towapj supplying this for 4 crop or two, than 50 of ppwid shells, THE INQ.UI R EB JOB PRINTING OFFICE, Sledford, Pa.

Emjnress of Brav.il, Queen of Kpain and Queen of Bavaria. flie It rover and Baker Elastic-Stitch sewing Machines are superior to all others for the follow ing reasons: 1. They sew direct from the spools, and require no rewinding of thread. 2. They are more easily understood and used, and le.s liable to derangement than other ma chines. 3. They are capable of executing perfectly, without change of adjustment, a much greater variety of worlt than other machines. 4. The -titch made by theso machines is much ineie firm, elastic, and durable, especially upon articles which require to be washed and ironed, than any oiher stitch. 5. This stitch, owing to the manner in which the under thread is inwrought, is much the most plump and beautiful in us-, and retains this plum| ue?s and beauty even upon articles frequent ly washed and ironed until they are worn out. C. Ibe structure of the seam is such that, though it be cut or broken at intervals of only a few stitches, it will neither open, run, or ravel, but remains firm and durable. 7. Unlike other machines, theso fasten both ends of the scam by their own operation. 8. With these machines, while silk is used upo* the right or face sido of the seam, cotton may > used upon the other side without lessening the strength or durability of the scam. This can be dono on other machine, and is a great saving upon all articles stitched or made up with silk. These machines, in addition to their superior merits as instruments for Sewing, by a change of adjustment, easily learned and practiced, execute the most beautiful and permanent embroidery and ornamental work.
